This book introduces multiple criteria and multiple constraint levels linear programming (MC2LP), which is an extension of linear programming (LP) and multiple criteria linear programming (MCLP). In the last decade, the author and a group of researchers from the USA, China, Korea, Germany, and Hungary have been working on the theory and applications of MC2LP problems. This volume integrates their main research results ranging from theoretical bases to broad areas of real world applications. The theoretical bases include the formulation of MC2LP; integer MC2LP and MC2 transportation model; fuzzy MC2LP and fuzzy duality of MC2LP; optimal system designs and contingency plans; MC2 decision support system; and MC2 computer software development. The application areas are accounting, management information systems, production planning, and telecommunications management.The book serves as a seminar text for both undergraduates and graduates who have a linear algebra or equivalent background. For practitioners, it will help in handling LP type problems in multiple decision making environment.

This unique book presents the contemporary achievements in management research and managerial practice of Chinese enterprises. Featuring a collection of keynote and plenary speeches by well-known international scholars and CEOs of multinational and national corporations, this book puts forth their solutions to management challenges from both China''s reality and global concerns. Comprehensively discussed and examined, the various topics being broached are strategic management; organizational behaviors; accounting and finance; management science; information and technology management; as well as innovations. This book not only highlights the cutting-edge findings of management research in China but is also a reflection of the changes of management theory and applications in the face of China''s economic reform and open-door policy; hence making it a useful resource for readers interested in China''s management and economic development.
